Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 02 Apr 09 - 08:47 AM Why I fired my Secretary. Last week was my birthday and I didn't feel very well waking up on that morning.. I went downstairs for breakfast hoping my wife would be pleasant and say, 'Happy Birthday!', and possibly have a small present for me. As it turned out, she barely said good morning, let alone ' Happy Birthday.' I thought... Well, that's marriage for you, but the kids... They will remember. My kids came bounding down stairs to breakfast and didn't say a word.. So when I left for the office, I felt pretty low and somewhat despondent. As I walked into my office, my secretary Jane said, 'Good Morning Boss, and by the way Happy Birthday ! ' It felt a little better that at least someone had remembered. I worked until one o'clock , when Jane knocked on my door and said, 'You know, It's such a beautiful day outside, and it is your Birthday, what do you say we go out to lunch, just you and me.' I said, 'Thanks, Jane, that's the greatest thing I've heard all day. Let's go !' We went to lunch. But we didn't go where we normally would go. She chose instead at a quiet bistro with a private table. We had two martinis each and I enjoyed the meal tremendously. On the way back to the office, Jane said, 'You know, It's such a beautiful day... We don't need to go straight back to the office, Do We ?' I responded, 'I guess not. What do you have in mind ?' She said, 'Let's drop by my apartment, it's just around the corner.' After arriving at her apartment, Jane turned to me and said, ' Boss, if you don't mind, I'm going to step into the bedroom for just a moment. I'll be right back.' 'Ok.' I nervously replied. She went into the bedroom and, after a couple of minutes, she came out carrying a huge birthday cake ... Followed by my wife, my kids, and dozens of my friends and co-workers, all singing 'Happy Birthday'. And I just sat there.... On the couch... Naked. |

Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 02 Apr 09 - 09:51 AM Sorry about that I just recieved it via e mail and .... It was funny though |

Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 02 Apr 09 - 10:41 AM Did you know maggie G(to preserve anonymity)has aspotlight at the Globe next tuesday,and she broke her guitar last night restringing it? |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Georgiansilver Date: 02 Apr 09 - 11:08 AM Hey Tim, I might well give it a go this year... my new tent needs an airing.. what are the washing/showering facilities like at the camp site and I presume good food is available... ie fried brekky and other meals? |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 02 Apr 09 - 11:19 AM Weeel there is food at the pub,food at a diner just near the car park. the site was an army type camp at some point. there are showers and they work they are not modern. I suppose it would be fair to say the facilities are just above basic. + if were in a tent on your ownsome I reckon you would find the other campers are freindly and some like us have a cooker you would be more than welcome to use or to share stuff. It is a very freindly gathering. Well apart from me I am a grouch but only while I am awake. |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Georgiansilver Date: 02 Apr 09 - 04:06 PM Well I guess if you have a cooker and I have some fillet steak... I am sure we could work something out.... better remind me when it gets nearer the time though.....me memory aint what it used to be..... When you get into your sixties it seems to deteriorate faster..... |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Rasener Date: 02 Apr 09 - 04:21 PM Do the the house owners at Staithes complain about the loud fart sounding noises coming from the tents Tim? |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Mavis Enderby Date: 02 Apr 09 - 04:55 PM Loud fart sounding noises? Complain? - well - "EVERY type of live music will be encouraged and made welcome"! So as long as we're all in the same key we'll be OK. Hoping to make it for the 3rd year on the trot. Great little DIY festival! Pete. |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Georgiansilver Date: 02 Apr 09 - 04:57 PM Must be an improvement on Blitherscrum anyway....... |

Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 02 Apr 09 - 05:49 PM Mike you welcome to make use of the facilities but Jen is a veggie so the steak thing is probably a none starte for us lol. You can do yer own in our pans thought no probs. Mr COggles I hope you and your boss will be there to bolster me up against the late hours and home brew that I am forced to endure at Stsithes will your two mates be going again we really enjoyed hearing the classical stuff the room truly fell silent . |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Doug Chadwick Date: 02 Apr 09 - 05:54 PM Hi Tim, I've just asked the wife and she's signed a 5-day pass, so I'll probably see you there. DC |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Barry Finn Date: 02 Apr 09 - 06:13 PM I will be coming over early in the week (maybe Tuesday or Wednesday) for the Scarborough Seafest which starts on that Friday. I'll be performing with my friend Ken Schatz, I just spoke with Deb C yesterday & she's performing their too & like me I believe she'll be flying in early in the week. Is this something that's free only to those campering or staying at the Inn or are the singing venues open to anyone that happen's on by & I looked at a map, it seems close to Scarborough but I couldn't figure out the distances. Can someone tell me how far & if there public transportation to both places? I hope this is workable thanks Barry |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Barry Finn Date: 02 Apr 09 - 06:54 PM Sorry, I see my dates are off by a week. I got lost in my excitment Barry |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Joe G Date: 02 Apr 09 - 06:57 PM I'm hoping we may make it this year if the weather is kind and there are no irresistable foreign holiday bargains then! |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 02 Apr 09 - 07:26 PM Would be great to see all of you . I know ther is abus stop at the top of the road and will have to ask someone to find out tomorrow. The music venues are totally free to anyone its a pub. The late sessions in the buildings on the camp site are as far as I know free to all as well. HEy Doug that would be great we will finally have someone who knows how to put up a tent! LOl |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Rasener Date: 03 Apr 09 - 12:48 AM Barry Finn If you haven't got the dates wrong and you can make it to Staithes, then there is a bus service from Scarborough to Whitby Number 93 or X93 and takes about 1 hour. You then have to change to Bus number 56 or X56 from Whitby to Staithes which takes about 30 minutes 93 or X93 timetable http://www.northyorkstravel.info/pdf/YNAO093.pdf 56 or X56 timetable http://www.arrivabus.co.uk/uploadedfiles/Services/North_East/NEWH56,X56_180109_110109.pdf Scarborough to Whitby is 21 miles Whitby to Staithes is another 10 miles You can't travel fast on these roads as they are hilly and twisty, but take in some lovely scenery. Here is map link http://www.multimap.com/directions/?qs_1=scarborough&countryCode_1=GB&qs_2=Staithes&displayName_2=Whitby&lat_2=54.48526&lon_2=-0 Hope that helps. |

Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 03 Apr 09 - 05:39 AM Eurogather 2009 Grimsby UK Dougie Is organising a mudcat gathering at Grimsby in the uk. I have added alink to his thread for anyone who may be around and want to attend. I have never been to one so looking forward (hopefully) to meeting some catters and hearing some great music. It weould be good if some of the readers of the threads could make it even if they not in the habit of posting. |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: GUEST,Maggie Date: 03 Apr 09 - 01:53 PM Quote - Did you know maggie G(to preserve anonymity)has aspotlight at the Globe next tuesday,and she broke her guitar last night restringing it? - Unquote Wow, news sure does travel don't it? Thanks to all who have asked, and special thanks to Cliff who offered the loan of a good guitar (that would be a first for me !) It was just the machine head on the 3rd string. The string had been slipping for a day or two, I thought it was the winding, and needed new strings. When I tried to put them on, the machine finally gave up the ghost. Luckily the ex-hubby lent me a mini-Grover to tide me over until the new set I ordered off t'internet arrives - don't you just love e-bay - and see, I do have a good word for him now and then!!! Cheers, Maggie Gee xxx |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: GUEST,Maggie Date: 03 Apr 09 - 01:57 PM And yes, I will be at Staithes with the little carry-van and awning. If anyone needs cooking facilities, so long as they do their own washing up, give me a shout! p.s. Jen, I'm NOT a veggie, so it don't worry me if someone cooks steak - can I dip my bread in their gravy ??? Love, Maggie xxx |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Barry Finn Date: 03 Apr 09 - 02:08 PM Thanks Villan for all that info. If I can work it out it would be a well prayed for miracle. Barry |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 03 Apr 09 - 04:03 PM Bus no 'X 56' from Middlesbrough - Whitby (X designating it as Express) every half hour through the day, not Sundays. The trip to Staithes takes a little over one hour. Same service number back-over from Whitby. That trip takes a little less. Either brings you to the top of Staithes Lane. No service down into the village, nor yet as far as The Cook. Getting to Whitby by rail is via Middlesbrough anyway but a very pretty run through the dales of the North Yorks National Park some people go just for the trip - some parts of the line interchange with the Grosmont to Pickering Steam trains for the anoraks !!! And that's Heartbeat country ! The intrepid traveller could also do the railway to Saltburn and then hop local busses to Loftus and pick up the X 56 there, or a cab even - its only another 5 miles or so on to our ultimate destination. When I was a kid the railway ran down the coast and the station at Staithes was where the car park is now - The Cook was "The Station Hotel" We'll take a look at the residual architecture when we are down there if you are interested - still remains of the old via-duct which carried the line from Boulby over the valley. That little cafe which does such a superb breakfast, stands on the site of the signal box and / or porter's cottage. That Dr Beeching did untold damage to this nation. If someone is using their bus pass (like me) then you could hop up the coast from your end, via Bridlington, Filey, Scarborough, Whitby to Staithes and do it for nowt - but not sure how long a trip like that would take!!! May involve overnight stop somewhere along the line, due to connection times, but a very pretty trip. To those not familiar with our coast line - it is stunning - don't need to tell you. That's why we put up with the shite weather the most of the year (shouldn't complain - we had our summer yesterday!!!) That and the vibrant music scene and wonderful people - what more can I say ??? Got this from Maggie. She will post when she finds out who she is. Sounds like american film dont it. |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Mavis Enderby Date: 04 Apr 09 - 03:06 AM Tim - we're looking forward to the late night sessions but we may have even more home brew for you to endure. I'm not sure what our buds are doing yet but it would be grand to add them to the Yellowbelly invasion again. Just to add to the X56 bus discussion it's very handy for extending your range for coastal walks - I.e. you can walk twice as far as you might do otherwise up or down the coast and get the bus back. I hope you get your identity back soon Maggie! Pete. |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: GUEST,Maggie Date: 04 Apr 09 - 05:56 AM Hi everyone - got my i.d. back at last, thanks to super-efficient Joe Offer. Got new machines today - ordered on Thursday, postie tried to deliver Friday but I was in shower and missed him. Collected from mail office today (Saturday) Hows that for service? Will get them fitted on over the week-end and let the man have his mini-Grover back. Was SO worried in case I broke that one too !!! So the Kermit-caster is back on the road, or will be by tomorrow night! See you at Staithes if not before, as Pete said, the Cleveland Way footpath passes right through the village - but to quote someone very dear "I don't do walking, and I DON'T do uphill". Must be getting old! Was always a member of the W.C. Fields' School of Exercise, he said "If you are fit you don't need it, if you are not fit you shouldn't take it". - I get all the execise I need jumping to conclusions. Love & Peace, Maggie xxx |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Mavis Enderby Date: 04 Apr 09 - 06:11 AM We rather foolishly pushed our bikes up Boulby Bank last year - took all morning to get to the top, about 5 mins to get back (with smoking brake blocks!) Glay you've got ID back & Kermit-caster sorted. Have a good gig Tues. Pete. |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 04 Apr 09 - 07:50 AM Guest \Maggie you really ought to get joined up and then we can suffer err I mean enjoy your wit and wisdom at anytime. Great to hear you got yer bits, and Mr Coggles I shall look forward to your music and the company of the delightful and charming Mrs Coggles. |

Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 17 Apr 09 - 03:48 PM I think the house owners would be hard pressed to hear even Les! Especialy the ones who live elsewhere. |

Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Georgiansilver Date: 20 Apr 09 - 04:37 PM I am told that at my age I should be eating chicken or fish rather than steak.... mmmmmmm I guess the steak wins... A drop of good French Red wine and a very rare steak..... only one food can beat it..... can you hazard at least a guess to what food that might be???? |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 22 Apr 09 - 05:59 PM More steak ? |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Georgiansilver Date: 22 Apr 09 - 06:38 PM close.... but my very fave food is ..... wait for it.... Sushi !!!! |

So much so, that whenever we have been back to Holland, to visit my wife's parents, they had it on the table waiting for me. Yes it was a bread roll with raw herring and onion. It was lovely or as the Dutch say "Lekker, Lekker, Lekker" |

Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 24 Apr 09 - 05:43 PM I only just realised the title of this thread is still wrong How can I get someone good and clever and powerful to adjust it for me? Also I have realised that me spell checker,that somehow has started working on everything else,doesnt help me out on here. So now everyone knows how ignorant I am of the correct spelling of so many words in my own language. |
Subject: RE: Staithes 2009 Anybody? From: GUEST,Maggie Date: 25 Apr 09 - 12:50 PM Well I drove by today and the village is still there! Looking forward to that week so much, but if anyone fancies a rehearsal for the BIG WEEK, there is a half day session in the Capt Cook on the first Sunday of every week, and the next one is a bank holdiay too! Personally, I'm away to Retford to visit the brood that week-end, or I'd be there meself !!! |

Eventually I got through to someone who I asked about booking. He said just turn up, so that's what I will do. DC |

Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 10 Jul 09 - 11:55 PM Ahhh Mr Coggles. Could you possibly mention me and Lemon cake to a certain young lady of your acquaintance? Dunno re the C&L but I heard that there are regular Sunday sessions in the Captain Cook. can anyone confirm either of these folky rumors. Why does my spellchecker hate me? |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Mavis Enderby Date: 11 Jul 09 - 03:35 PM Well Tim, I mentioned lemon cake to Mrs Coggles and she's just nipped to the Co-op for some icing sugar, so I think that's a good sign... Spellcheckers are known to be instruments of the devil. Back in the eighties a certain word processing package would state "there is no alternative" when confronted with "Margaret Thatcher"! See you Wednesday? Pete. |

Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Soldier boy Date: 12 Jul 09 - 06:33 PM I would really love to come to the Staithes festival because I love the place BUT it clashes with Saddleworth FF. Aaaarrrgggghhh! I really wish one year that you could organise it so that you don't clash with Saddleworth. So I would definately be there and I know loads of other folkies who would want to be there as well. Just a thought. Have a great festival folks, wish I could be there with you. |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 12 Jul 09 - 11:18 PM Ahhh well perhaps the great folky it the sky will read this and put an extra day in the year so we don't over lap? Meanwhile enjoy the music at Saddleworth and share the good weather with us. I know what you mean re timing but would rather have the choice of several than the other thing which is a day of and nowt to go too innit. Best wishes Tim |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 13 Jul 09 - 05:13 PM Now lets see tent mended,time off work,beer money new guitar.. maybe shouldnt spend sp much time on here eh? |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Soldier boy Date: 13 Jul 09 - 07:51 PM Sorry Tim Leaning but I don't understand what you mean in your second from last posting? Why can't you just choose a different weekend so you don't clash with Saddleworth FF. Me and many folkies I know from Yorkshire would love to come to your festival but not at the expense of missing Saddleworth. Is there no way that you could opt for a different weekend? I'm probably wasting my breath bud but if it could be changed it would really please a large clump of hard core folkies who all know each other and who love to go to all the best festivals. And I'm sure that Staithes would become a firm favourite. |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Rasener Date: 14 Jul 09 - 01:22 AM Blimey Tim, didn't know you were the organiser now. Is that true? If not who is? Tim you forgot one thing on your list Your missus. |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Doug Chadwick Date: 14 Jul 09 - 03:02 AM It doesn't seem to matter which weekend you choose. It will always clash with something else. Yorkshire is a big place and there's lots going on. There's so much more I would like to do in life if only I had the time. Now if we were to ask the good folks of Saddleworth to move …….. :-) DC |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Georgiansilver Date: 14 Jul 09 - 05:27 AM Was hoping to come on Saturday but what with GFC on Friday night (Tom Bliss' final gig) and having to drive to Liverpool early Sunday morning I might give it a miss... sorry Tim! Best wishes, Mike. |
Subject: RE: Stathes 2009 Anybody? From: Tim Leaning Date: 14 Jul 09 - 10:36 AM Sorry to hear that Mike. Hopefully there will be another year? Errrr no Mr V am not one of the organizers,as you know I have difficulty organizing a few notes and words to fit together. I just volunteered to try and make the dates available on mudcat and maybe find a few answers to any queries. Soldierboy. I don't have a say in the organizing of the Staithes weekend. It isn't a festival with paid performers more of a gathering of people who like sitting in the pub,campsite,seafront etc playing listening and having a good time with friends old and new. In fact I have been told not to use the "F" word in connection with it although music and song of that persuasion is warmly welcomed and greatly enjoyed. I will put your p.o.v. to Tony tomorrow and let you know via this thread of any outcome. Errr of course I wont be able to post on here for a few days so it will be Monday or Tuesday next week most likely. Cheers Tim |

Hopefully with ten days to choose from we might get a few more calling in after Saddleworth or en route to Durham,Scarbro etc. Cheers all. |
